AW: I was at my breaking point but then...

Yesterday I hadn't slept more than 45 minutes at a time, my nipples were so bad that I bled into my breastmilk, and DH has been working a ton.  Just when I thought it couldn't get any harder, DH took the night shift, LO only woke up once at 4 am to feed, and my bewbies made it 5 hours without needing to be pumped.  Meaning I got 7 1/2 hours of sleep.  I feel like superwoman today.

Hooray for sleep!

Ada was sleeping so well like this for a while - I ended up having to get up anyway to pump b/c my supply was decreasing secondary to the reduced demand. Sucks.
